Hey, I have been coming across this problem when filling a selection made by magic wand tool. When I make a selection of the specific area I want , the magic wand selects it as well as the whole layer and when I use the paint bucket tool , it ends up filling the entire layer. I am using photoshop 2019. Someone help me out, thanks.

Are you tying to fill just the apple or the background? You have the background selected to fill? If it is just the apple..select inverse. This will also let you know if there are any gaps.

Are you on layer that contains pixels you want to select? Do you have Sample All Layers from the Options bar turned on? Can you post screenshot with entire window and Layers panel visible?
